The addition of separate internal fluoride and chlorine rooms (within existing well <br />house) and seepage pit per Minnesota Department of Health requirements. <br />2. Rehabilitation of existing Well House No. 1 including a new pitched shingled <br />roof, soffit lighting and exterior siding. <br />3. New exterior door and replacement of existing doors. <br />4. New bituminous driveway and subgrade, and expanded pavement behind the well <br />house for chemical delivery vehicles and well maintenance rig. <br />5. Replacement of existing chemical feed equipment and associated appurtenances. <br />6. Replacement of existing HVAC systems. <br />7. Building additions will be provided with mechanical systems as required to meet <br />the space heating load and ventilation air change rate. <br />8. Replacement of main switchgear and motor control center. <br />9. Replace existing control panel and other electrical equipment inside the well house <br />(i.e. lights, receptacles, switches, cable and conduit, etc.). <br />10.
